The SHRA,
Bill 128, was passed in December 2000 and provides the legislative
framework for

such as eligibility rules for assisted housing, require further
details in order to implement the legislation. These "details"
are called Regulations.
Regulations are specific procedures to be followed and they are
amended from time to time. Regulations accompany some of the sections
in the SHRA.

City of Toronto as the local service manager may set local rules
in a limited number of areas as permitted by the SHRA. The Social
Housing Unit communicates the City's local rules to housing providers
